The short one looked at it with a face full of certainty. "Aunt, you're not a newcomer, are you?"
I nodded.
"No wonder it's like this. Alright, alright, since you're new, I won't take Steamed Bun's money. However, I still have to tell you about the rules here." The short boss looked at my blank expression and continued.
"This place is the same as the mortal world. Buying things requires spending money. If you don't have the money from this world, you can go to a bank that specializes in money …"
Feeling that there was something wrong with the little shorty's words, I hastily snatched it back. "Is it the same as the Yang World?" That... "Where is this place?"
The short one shook his head, "Looks like you're really a newcomer. Our place is called the" Underworld Gathering "held four times a year, which is equivalent to the four ghost festivals in the world. Every time it's opened for three days, the ghost will go home and enjoy the offerings.
"What …" The Yellow Springs Gathering? " The corner of my mouth twitched. Did I accidentally come to the Underworld, or did I just die?
Impossible, I was obviously from school …
Yeah, I'm at school! Recalling what happened before, I understood that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
I yelled into the air, "Hey!" Hey! "Come out!" Aside from the cries of the hawkers, there was no other response.
The short guy next to me looked at me suspiciously as if he was looking at a lunatic. He didn't know what I was doing so he quickly asked:
"Aunt, what are you yelling for?" "Who are you calling to come out?"
I felt a little embarrassed by my impudence and replied with a smile, "Heh heh, my companions who came with me have left …"
"Oh, hurry up and leave, don't do business in front of me …" The boss of the bun house waved at me impatiently, telling me to leave.
I looked at this strange street, strange everything, a little lost, go, where do I go? How do I get back? Where did the person who said he wanted to help me just now go? Did he bring me here?
And that damned Qin Yize, he still had the mood to marry a lovely wife and drink wine at this time.
As I scolded Qin Yize in my heart, I wandered around aimlessly and unwittingly, and walked far away. At this moment, the buildings in front of me had undergone some changes.
Just now, they had seen an imitation of an ancient building by the roadside. Now, what they saw should belong to a common house.
Red bricks, green tiles, a three-storey building. On the roof, there were two dragons and two pearls embedded in it. Not only that, there were two female servants standing in front of the door.
He kept feeling that he had seen this building before, but he just couldn't remember where …
Just like this, it continued to stretch all the way to the end of the tunnel.
Just as I was about to leave, an old man came out of the house next to mine. He stared at me for a moment, then at my stomach.
In the end, his face was filled with terror, as if he had seen something terrifying. He even lost his balance and tumbled back into the house. He closed the door with a bang, and there was no more sound.
I innocently touched my nose. Am I that scary?
He stopped thinking about it and continued walking. The more he walked, the fewer houses there were, and they were becoming more and more desolate.
Sensing that something was wrong, I turned around and prepared to head back. However, just as I was about to move my feet, I heard a group of people shouting behind me.
"Catch her! Don't let her get away!"
Subconsciously, I wanted to run away. Even if I were an idiot, I could feel that this matter wasn't that simple. It seemed that someone had intentionally lured me here.
I had only run a few steps when I was surrounded by a crowd. The leader of the crowd was a thin, sharp-tongued man with a monkey face.
"What are you guys doing? We have no enmity with each other." Suppressing the fear in my heart, I braced myself to ask.
"Hehe, I'm just looking for you to play with us …" The man's voice was sharp, and when he spoke, his eyes roamed back and forth over me. His eyes made me feel uncomfortable.
Just as he finished speaking, the surrounding people started to heckle. Some of them even extended their hands towards me, and just as they were about to grab me, a dignified voice came from the crowd, "Impudent!"
Hearing this person's voice, I could clearly see the people surrounding me tremble all over. The hands that were stretched out in midair also quickly retracted back.
The group of people automatically split into two rows and stood respectfully on both sides of the road. Following my gaze, I saw a tall figure already standing in front of me.
The person in front of him was tall and strong. He held two large golden hammers in his hands, and wore a golden upturned shoe. There was a golden belt tied around his waist, and his face was that of an ox.
With two eyes as big as lamps, the cow was still panting heavily. It cupped its hands in front of me and said, "I was just following orders and offended …."
After saying that, two Ghost Messenger came over and dragged me along, flying straight ahead. After passing through the desolate area in front of us, we entered a large mountain.
A door opened at the mountainside, and the Ox Head led me in.
After a while, they arrived at a large hall. There were Ox Head s on both sides of the hall.
Directly across the hall was a table with a man in a black robe sitting behind it, but his back was to me and I couldn't tell who he was.
The scene before me confused me. Did I provoke the Demon Ox King, or did I provoke the Ox Head Horse-Face? Or was he in an ox's nest?
It was deadly.
"You are Qin Yize's new living bride?" Just as I was in a daze, a distant voice suddenly sounded in the room.
"Hmm?" I looked around, wondering who was talking to me.
I looked around and decided that the person most likely to speak to me was the man in the black robe.
"Are you talking to me?"
"That's right!" After saying that, Black Robe turned around. Initially, I thought that I would be able to see his true appearance. However, when he turned around, I was startled.
Under the black cape and hat was a white mask of evil spirits. Its two sharp teeth shone brightly, and the corners of its mouth were scarlet. Its two eyes were located in two large sockets which were also scarlet in color.
Apparently, the other party didn't want me to know his identity.
The black-robed man did not care about my shock and fear. He spoke again, "Since she is Qin Yize's woman, do you know his identity?"
